Match each temperature scale reference state on the left with its correct thermodynamic definition on the right.
- Absolute zero ()Theoretical temperature at which molecular translational kinetic energy reaches its minimum value
- Ice point ()Standard lower fixed point representing pure melting ice at pressure
- Steam point ()Standard upper fixed point representing steam above pure boiling water at pressure
- Triple point of water ()State where solid ice, liquid water, and water vapour coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium
Cevap
Absolute zero matches with the state of minimum molecular kinetic energy. The ice point matches with the lower fixed point of pure melting ice at standard pressure. The steam point matches with the upper fixed point of pure boiling water steam at standard pressure. The triple point of water matches with the thermodynamic equilibrium state of ice, liquid water, and water vapour.
Each temperature scale reference point is correctly paired with its defining physical state: absolute zero represents minimum molecular kinetic energy, the ice point represents melting ice at standard pressure, the steam point represents steam from boiling water at standard pressure, and the triple point represents the three-phase equilibrium of water.
